The Eye - Stereo Resonant Filter

NEW !

     The Sebatron 'Eye' is a high-quality, standalone stereo resonant filter unit designed for both creative experimentation and practical use in a wide range of audio and musical applications. Housed in a dedicated enclosure, it provides hands-on control over stereo filtering, making it an excellent tool for producers, mix engineers, and sound designers looking to explore sonic textures and movement within the stereo field.

With thoughtful and precise use, the 'Eye' is capable of producing a broad spectrum of stereo filtration effects from subtle spatial enhancements to more pronounced, rhythmic sweeps and resonant notches. These effects can bring shape, motion, and a unique creative flair to stereo musical mixes, auxiliary subgroups, or any signal chain where a sense of dynamic tone sculpting is desired.


Beyond its use as an effect processor, the Sebatron 'Eye' also functions effectively as a practical stereo equalizer. Its flexible filtering capabilities allow for nuanced stereo tone shaping, providing both corrective and creative EQ options. Whether you're fine-tuning a mix, shaping the timbre of an instrument, or adding movement to a static sound source, the Eye delivers a powerful and musical solution in any studio setup.

The centre or cutoff Filter frequency control is adjusted via an 11cm horizontal fader for ease of accuracy and manipulation .
This allows the user to accurately target a specific frequency and/or to do fast sweeps up and down the audio spectrum with
ease. The Eye also features an external +5vdc input to interface with other CV based equipment.

The Eye filter runs two seperate VCF circuits (one for left channel and one for right channel ) that are driven by the same control voltage for frequency cutoff.
The two filters can be slightly offset by the use of the 'stereo offset' control allowing for interesting and creative filtration effects.

There are three seperate filtration modes of operation : Bandpass , Lowpass and Highpass.

Bandpass :
Only passes frequencies at the selected frequency of the fader control.
Lowpass :
Only passes frequencies below the selected frequency of the fader control.
Highpass :
Only passes frequencies above the selected frequency of the fader control.

Each mode is selected via the mode momenatry pushbutton switch located on the bottom left of the Eye.
A Blue LED indicates which of the three filtration modes is selected.

The bypass control is switched by relay so there is no audio colouration while in bypass mode.This is known as a 'true' bypass.
If power supply is not plugged in or is interrupted the Eye will revert to bypass mode so that the signal flow
remains uninterrupted.
